One day, when Iâm sitting on death row, Iâll look back on this moment as the one that fucked me over. Iâll sit there and wonder why I did it, why I let myself be so vulnerable and stupid after a few shots of tequila and hearing her say the words I already knew were true. But I get to touch her now. Not through gloves, with my bare hands. Callused, rough hands that havenât felt the softness of a womanâs body in more years than I can count. I get to kiss her now, not just fantasize about it in the dark. I donât need to wear a mask or change my voice or alter my movements to hide my identity.
I can take her the way I always meant to.
I can take her in the light.
âAvery,â I growl, picking her up off her feet as I catch her bottom lip between my teeth. âYouâve been teasing me for months.â
âHave I?â she breathes. âHow so?â
She does that infuriatingly hot thing where she bites her bottom lip and stares me down like sheâs innocent, and I lose my fucking mind every time. Thereâs something so enticing about a girl who looks innocent and happens to be anything but.
âRevealing clothes, flirty smiles, touching me all the time,â I growl, carrying her toward her room. âSpreading your legs on the couch as if I donât know youâre trying to draw my attention to your pussy.â
She clings to me until I throw her on her bed, then spreads her legs for me like she canât help it. âDid it work?â She releases a shaky breath. âDid my pussy have your attention?â
Nodding, I try to remind myself not to slip into either one of my usual personas. I canât be Midnight right now, canât be Muerte. But itâs been so fucking long since Iâve been with a woman as Scar that Iâm not sure I remember how it used to be. âOh, youâve had my attention. And now someone has to pay the price for that.â
I grab her ankles and yank her toward the edge of the bed as she squeals, gripping the leggings sheâs wearing to peel them off and reveal cute little pink panties with a wet spot right in the center.
Fuck, she really does want me.
âLike what you see?â she whispers, dropping her knees to the sides as she reaches down to rub herself through the fabric.
I do, but I canât help but notice this isnât what she asked for. She wanted to feel forced, yet everything about her is screaming that she wants this, wants me. For the first time in a while, Iâm okay with that. Maybe I donât have to be so rough all the time.
âYouâre gorgeous, Avery. Staying away from you has been impossible,â I admit, hoping she wonât read between the lines. âTake your panties off for me. Slowly.â
Thereâs a spark in her eyes that makes me believe sheâs about to deny me, but she doesnât. Her
